A global bestseller

Scavenger hunt with intrusive cliffhanger dramaturgy.

Apparently a film script, laboriously camouflaged as sloppily written and partly plagiarized novel.

Holy Grail esotericism mixed with conspiracy theories.

It is always interesting to see what boring and inconsequential books dominate the global bestseller lists for years.

A little less unbearable than Paulo Coelho though. But that’s true anyway for almost all books.
